A friend recently sent me a link to another mom's blog who had posted the following instagram quote: "It will be whatever you choose." (check it out here)
I had just finished some chores and was feeling worn out when I read this. I began to compare myself to what I considered more successful moms than myself, which made me feel even lower. I thought to myself, "I feel depressed."
But then the above quote came to my mind. I realized I had a choice in how I felt, and I thought, "No, I choose to feel happy." When I said this, I thought of what I had accomplished today instead of what I hadn't. I also thought that I should focus on my own growth and improvement instead of on others' accomplishments. Those choices left me feeling happier and free to enjoy my day instead of being depressed about it!
